Send us a textDue to high demand, we're bringing this one back!This throwback episode is a fan favourite and one of the most downloaded from The Property Unleashed Podcast archives.Persuasion isn't just a business skill—it's the foundation of wealth creation in property entrepreneurship. When you can effectively communicate your vision, build genuine rapport, and influence others ethically, deals materialize that benefit everyone involved.Today's episode dives deep into the psychology of persuasion that's transformed countless property deals. We explore why listening is more powerful than speaking, how authentic passion transfers energy to potential partners, and why the best communicators know exactly when to stop talking. Remember: two ears, one mouth—use them in that proportion!Drawing inspiration from masters like Dale Carnegie and Steve Jobs, we break down practical techniques you can implement immediately. Learn how to create natural-sounding scripts, tell compelling stories that sell, and avoid common communication pitfalls that sabotage deals. The most valuable tip? "Don't sell past close." When you recognize someone's ready to move forward, change the subject (I personally start talking about the weather) instead of continuing to pile on information that might create doubt.These aren't just theoretical concepts—they're battle-tested strategies I've refined through years of property deals and business leadership. Whether you're negotiating with vendors, pitching to investors, or building your team, mastering influential communication will elevate every aspect of your property journey. Practice these techniques daily, even in casual interactions, and watch your confidence and closing rates transform!VALUABLE RESOURCES: Visit www.thepropertyunleashed.com to explore are free Property Ebooks and guides in Rent-to-Rent, Serviced Accommodation, Deal Sourcing and and also our FREE training masterclasses to help you generating a sustainable income through property. https://www.facebook.com/groups/816926952556608 to meet like-minded property investors and be a part of the community.

Send us a textWhy do some people take action and succeed while others remain stuck despite having the same knowledge? This fascinating conversation with performance coach Dominic Bicheno uncovers the hidden psychological barriers that keep us from achieving our potential.After 18 years and over 10,000 coaching hours with 3,000+ business leaders, Dominic has identified the subconscious programming that sabotages success. He explains that while our conscious mind wants to achieve, our primitive brain is wired to keep us safe and comfortable, triggering fear responses that hold us back from taking risks.The most illuminating revelation? These mental blocks were installed during childhood (ages 0-12) when our brains operated in theta and delta wavelength states that absorbed information without filters. One childhood incident can create a limiting belief that influences decisions decades later. Even more surprisingly, we inherit psychological blocks from our ancestors just as we inherit genetic tendencies.Dominic shares powerful techniques for breaking through these limitations, explaining why meditation, visualization, and specialized hypnotherapy like Rapid Transformational Therapy can create profound shifts by accessing those same theta brainwave states where original programming occurred. He emphasizes that environment shapes outcomes—"you're the average of the five people you spend most time with"—and sometimes major life changes are necessary to break limiting patterns.Whether you're hesitating to make offers on property deals, struggling to grow your business, or feeling stuck in any area of life, Dominic's insights provide both understanding and practical tools for transformation. His message is ultimately hopeful: by recognizing our programming and consciously creating new neural pathways, we can overcome any psychological barrier and finally achieve the success we desire.Connect with Dominic at www.unleash-u.com to discover how to break through your own limiting beliefs and unleash your full potential.VALUABLE RESOURCES: Visit www.thepropertyunleashed.com to explore are free Property Ebooks and guides in Rent-to-Rent, Serviced Accommodation, Deal Sourcing and and also our FREE training masterclasses to help you generating a sustainable income through property. https://www.facebook.com/groups/816926952556608 to meet like-minded property investors and be a part of the community.

In this episode of the Scottish Property Podcast, we sit down with Michael Paton, founder of MAP Short Stays, to explore his incredible journey from a challenging upbringing to becoming a successful property investor and short-term rental manager. Michael shares his personal story, from his troubled youth and early brushes with the law to turning his life around and building a thriving property management business. Now managing properties across Scotland, Michael specialises in short-term rentals, particularly in the contractor market, and reveals the systems, processes, and strategies that have allowed him to scale his business successfully. Episode Highlights: Michael's Early Life: Michael shares his upbringing, where he moved around frequently with his mother, struggled in school, and was expelled twice before being sent to a residential school. He reflects on how his rebellious youth, shaped by peer pressure and a lack of positive influence, eventually gave way to a sense of responsibility and a desire to build a better future for himself. Turning Point and Career Shift: After working for nearly 20 years in social care, including roles with at-risk youth and people with mental health challenges, Michael realised he wanted more flexibility to spend time with his family. His first experience as an accidental landlord in 2014 sparked his interest in property, though the traditional buy-to-let model didn't initially excite him. By 2021, he shifted focus to the short-term rental market, seeing an opportunity in holiday homes and caravans. Building a Short-Term Rental Business: Michael discusses how he scaled his short-term rental management business, starting with holiday caravans and lodges and growing into managing a portfolio of properties across Scotland. He explains the importance of having strong systems and processes in place, from automated guest communication to efficient cleaning protocols and contractor management. Challenges and Lessons Learned: Michael reflects on the challenges of finding the right business partners and emphasises the importance of thorough due diligence before entering into any business relationship. He also talks about the difficulties of scaling a business and the need for consistent hard work—working 16-18 hours a day, ensuring properties are managed to the highest standard. The Contractor Market: Michael has found a niche in managing short-term lets for contractors, offering long-term bookings and consistent income for landlords. He breaks down how to manage contractor bookings, the key amenities contractors look for (e.g., parking and laundry facilities), and how to achieve high occupancy rates. Managing Short-Term Let Licences: With Scotland's evolving legislation on short-term lets, Michael outlines the licensing process and how long it can take depending on the council area. Revenue and Profitability: Michael gives a realistic overview of the potential earnings in short-term lets, sharing that a well-managed three-bedroom property can generate around £4,000 a month in gross revenue. He stresses the importance of occupancy rates and setting realistic expectations for returns.

This podcast is about how to find properties. There are different ways that you can approach this. Speak to estate agents and look on online estate agent portals such as Rightmove and Zoopla. Do letter drops to local properties?  It may not always be a landlord, but you never know who might see your letter.  Talk about the benefits you can bring to the landlord, and make sure you include your contact details. It's crucial to be honest with estate agents about your intentions and ensure that the properties you either buy or rent are suitable for serviced accommodation. This not only builds trust but also sets a standard for ethical business practices in the property investment sector. You must check mortgages and leases to ensure both allow serviced accommodation.

Subletting After reading a post on Facebook from someone that I believe sells courses on Serviced Accommodation I wanted to clear something up. When you find a property that you want to rent for the purposes of using it for Serviced Accommodation you need to make sure that the lease allows it.  The post on Facebook said that you should state in the lease that you are subletting the property. Subletting is not what we do.  The lease should state that the property can be used for Serviced Accommodation. Join our Facebook group for more hints and tips. https://www.facebook.com/groups/servicedaccommodationsecrets    See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this podcast episode, we talk to Dan, Director of Your Save Management, who shares his journey in the property industry, starting from his teenage years when he initially got into property investment. Dan discusses his experiences with various property strategies, including rent to HMO and service accommodation, and emphasises the importance of work ethic, integrity, and reputation in achieving long-term success in the industry. KEY TAKEAWAYS Building a strong reputation through honesty, integrity, and delivering on promises is crucial for long-term success in the property industry. Traits such as a strong work ethic, a willingness to do whatever it takes, and a focus on helping others are essential for success and longevity in the industry. Success in the industry comes from solving people's problems, which leads to long-term relationships and financial rewards. Your Stays offers comprehensive service accommodation management services to help property owners maximize income and reduce management headaches. BEST MOMENTS “The biggest advice I'd give around that subject is that your first couple of years is so incredibly difficult to get off the ground if you're starting with very little capital." "I think the glory days of opening something up, chucking it on one of the portals and sitting back and watching that money roll in, that was a short time frame." "If you can solve someone's problem, then there's longevity in that and everything else will come along as a result of it."  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem     ABOUT THE SHOW This Property Life is hosted by the team at Property Wealth System.
